Zippered label-liner combination
A label-liner combination is provided. A liner substrate is segmented into three portions by horizontal die cut ties made in the liner substrate. The three portions comprise a top portion, a liner tear strip, and a bottom portion. A label substrate is segmented into three portions by perforations a border portion, a label tear strip, and a center portion. A front side of the liner substrate is aligned with a backside of the label substrate such that the liner tear strip aligns within the label tear strip, the bottom portion of the liner substrate aligns with the center portion of the label substrate, and the top portion of the liner substrate is aligned above and below a top perforation for the label tear strip.
1. A label-liner combination, comprising:
a liner substrate comprising two horizontal die cuts through the liner substrate, the two horizontal die cuts define a top portion of the liner substrate, a bottom portion of the liner substrate, wherein the two horizontal die cuts further define and a liner tear strip within the liner substrate that separates the top portion of the liner substrate from the bottom portion of the liner substrate;
a label substrate comprising two horizontal perforations through the label substrate and aligning to the two horizontal die cuts, wherein the two horizontal perforations define a label tear strip and includes two or more additional die cuts corresponding to an outline of three sides of the bottom portion of the liner substrate;
wherein a top one of the two horizontal die cuts sits under a top one of the two horizontal perforations;
wherein a bottom one of the two horizontal dies cuts sits above a bottom one of the two horizontal perforations;
wherein the liner tear strip and label tear strip combine to form a liner-label tear strip and an end portion of the liner-label tear strip extends beyond an outer edge of the label substrate to define a tab for removal of both the label tear strip and the liner tear strip.
2. The label-liner combination of claim 1 , wherein liner tear strip extends for a length of the two horizontal perforations under the label tear strip.
3. The label-liner combination of claim 1 , wherein the liner substrate is adapted to be separated into the bottom portion, the top portion, and the liner tear strip when the liner tear strip is removed from the label-liner combination with the label tear strip.
4. The label-liner combination of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the liner substrate and the bottom portion of the liner substrate are substantially centered on a backside of the label substrate with the liner tear strip aligned to the label tear strip to form the label-liner combination.
5. The label-liner combination of claim 1 , wherein a backside of the label substrate corresponding to the bottom portion of the liner substrate is free of any adhesive.
6. The label-liner combination of claim 1 , wherein the top portion of the liner substrate extends above and below the top one of the two horizontal perforations along a backside of the label substrate, wherein the bottom portion of the liner substrate extends above and below the bottom one of the two horizontal perforations along the backside of the label substrate.
